5 Introduction Microsoft Excel is a spread sheet application that lets you organise your data into lists. Excel is capable of performing calculations, generating charts and has many tools to enable you to analysis and summarise your data. Opening Excel Using Windows 7 Click on the Start Button In the Search Program and Files box type Excel Click on Microsoft Excel 2010 from the Program results The Microsoft Excel 2010 program will open, displaying a new blank workbook file.

7 The File Menu The File menu is back for Excel 2010! This had been replaced by the Office Button in Excel When you click on File it may initially be on the Info option or the Recent option. Info contains information about the current file and allows setting such as permissions, sharing files and managing versions to be changed. NOTE: It is not advisable to make changes to the default settings unless you have a good understanding of what the change will do. Recent this will display workbooks that you have had opened most recently. It is possible to pin files to the list so that regardless of when the file was last opened that it will always remain in the list. Save, Save As, Open, Close, New and Print can all be found here. The Ribbon Menu The menus and toolbars in Excel have been replaced with the Ribbon (since Excel 2007), which is part of the Microsoft Office Fluent user interface. The Ribbon is designed to help you quickly find the commands that you need to complete a task. Commands are organized in logical groups, which are collected together under tabs. Each tab relates to a type of activity, such as writing or laying out a page. Tabs There are 7 tabs in Microsoft Excel Tabs are used to organise together related groups of commands. The commands work in the same way as before. If you want to make a piece of text appear in bold font, select the piece of text using the mouse, on the home tab, in the font group, click on the bold command button. Dialog Box Launcher At first glance, you may not see a certain command from a previous version of Excel. Some groups have a small diagonal arrow in the lower-right corner. The arrow is called a Dialog Box Launcher. If you click it, you'll see more options related to that group. Those options will often appear in the form of a dialog box that you may recognize from a previous version of Excel. UCC Computer Training Centre 3

8 Quick Access Toolbar The Quick Access toolbar is located on the upper left hand corner above the File Menu It is a customizable toolbar that contains a set of commands that are independent of the tab that is currently displayed this means that the buttons remain the same no matter what tab is currently open. By default it contains save, undo and re-do buttons. By clicking on the arrow to the right of this toolbar you can quickly add other commands from the list or you can use the method outlined below. The position of the quick access toolbar can also be moved to below the Ribbon Adding to the Quick Access Toolbar There may be a command that you use on a regular basis that you would like to have access to without having to go through the ribbon interface. To add such a command to the quick access toolbar do the following: Locate the command in its tab Right click on the command button and from the menu that displays select Add to quick access toolbar The button will now be added to the toolbar Removing a button from the Quick Access Toolbar Right click on the button in the quick access toolbar Select Remove from quick access toolbar from the menu that displays Page Layout View Page Layout View is a new feature since Excel It is similar in some ways to print layout view in Word. Click on the View Tab Select Page Layout Alternatively Click on the Page Layout View in the bottom right hand corner of the Excel Window UCC Computer Training Centre 4

9 The Excel Work Book In Excel, when you open up a new workbook it contains 3 worksheets. This is useful to organize and store related information within the same file but on separate sheets. There can be a max of 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns in an excel work sheet. Sheet Tabs The names of the sheets appear on tabs at the bottom of the workbook window. To move from sheet to sheet, click the sheet tabs. Renaming a Tab It can be useful to name the sheets you are using. Right Click on the tab of the sheet to be named Select Rename Type the name of the sheet Press enter on the Keyboard. Alternatively, double click on the sheet tab and type the new sheet name Adding a new sheet New sheets can be added to a workbook at any time Click on the insert worksheet button A new sheet will be created. Alternatively, right click an existing sheet tab and select Insert. A new sheet will be inserted to the left of the worksheet Changing the Tab Colour of a Worksheet Right click on the sheet tab and click Tab Color Select the required colour Deleting a Worksheet Right click on the sheet tab and select Delete. Alternatively, from the Home Tab in the Cells Group click on Delete and select Delete Sheet. Note: The Undo button will not undo the deletion of a worksheet UCC Computer Training Centre 5

10 Creating a new Excel Workbook Excel opens a new workbook by default each time it is launched. However if you have closed an existing file and then wish to create a new workbook carry out the following: Click on the File menu and select click on New Blank workbook is selected, either double click on it or click on Create Saving an Excel File Before you begin adding content to your excel file it is considered best practice to save the file Click on the File menu Click The Save As window appears. Select which folder you wish to save the file in and type the file name in the filename box Click on Save. Compatibility Issue In Excel 2010 the Save As is important. We must remember that not everyone will have upgraded and it may be necessary to save the file as a Excel Workbook. This can be done by clicking on the down arrow to the right of the Save as Type box and choosing Excel Workbook when saving the file Most of the new features you may have used in your workbook will then display even when using as older version of Excel. These newer features may be un-editable in the older versions of Excel but will work normally in Note: It is recommended that you save your work regularly by clicking on the Save button on the Quick Access Toolbar UCC Computer Training Centre 6

11 Opening an Existing Workbook Click on the File menu and click on Open Navigate to, or Search for the required file Select the file Click Open Closing a Workbook Click on the File menu Select Close Closing Excel Click on the File menu Click on the Button Excel will now close Note: If you have made changes to the workbook you are prompted to save the workbook before it closes. (Click on Save if you wish to save the changes, Don t Save to discard changes or Cancel to cancel the command to close the file). Alternatively, to close a file or close excel you can use the buttons on the top right of the screen. UCC Computer Training Centre 7

12 Cells A cell must be selected i.e. made active before entering the information. To make the cell active, click into the cell using the mouse. The active cell address is displayed in the Name Box and a dark border appears around the cell. Types of Data Text, numbers, dates or a formula may be typed into a cell. By default, text aligns to the left of the cell whereas numbers, dates and formulas are right aligned. Entering Data in a Cell Select the cell you wish to enter the data into and type. As you type, the data appears in the active cell and in the formula bar. A cancel mark and an enter mark appears between the name box and the formula bar. Click on the tick mark upon completion of your entry or if you wish to delete the entry click on the x. Alternative ways of completing the entry of data in a cell include the following: o Press the Enter key this completes the entry and moves you down one cell below the active cell. o Press the Tab key - this completes the entry and moves you one cell to the right of the active cell. o Press one of the Arrow keys this completes the entry and moves you one cell in the direction of the arrow. o Use the mouse to move to another cell. Editing a cell Double click on the cell you wish to edit and move the cursor to where you wish to type. Alternatively, select the cell you wish to edit then click into the formula bar and make the required change. To replace existing data in a cell, simply click on the cell and type the new data and press enter. To delete data in a cell, select the cell and press the Delete key on the keyboard.

13 The Mouse Pointer The shape of the mouse pointer changes shape depending on where it is positioned within a cell. Each shape carries out a different task. If the mouse is moved to the centre area of a cell the mouse shape will be a white cross - use to select cells Click into a cell and move the mouse to any part of the border of the cell. The cell changes to a double headed arrow - use to move and drag the contents of the cell t o a different location. Click into a cell and move the mouse to bottom right of the cell. The mouse pointer changes to a + symbol - use for autofill or to copy contents of a cell. Autofill If you are entering a set series e.g. months of the year or days of the week you can type one of the series and then fill the rest of the series by using the autofill handle. If the entry in the cell is not part of a series the same data is filled into the other cells. If the cell contains a formula, the formula is copied into the other cells but the cell references will change (because excel uses relative cell referencing by default). Example Click into cell B1 and type Jul. Rest your mouse to the bottom right of the cell until the autofill handle appears. Click and drag over the two cells to the right of cell B1. Aug should appear in cell C1 and Sep in cell D1. Now click into cell B2 and type using the autofill click and drag into the two cells to the right of cell B should now be copied into cells C2 and D2. Note: In Excel 2010 you can autofill in any direction Examples of series that can be auto filled Initial selection Extended series Initial selection Extended series 1, 2, 3 4, 5, 6, , , 2010, 2011,... 9:00 10:00, 11:00, 12:00,... 1-Jan, 1-Mar 1-May, 1-Jul, 1-Sep,...

22 Formula Formulas are used to perform calculations in the worksheet. All calculations are based on formulas, which link cells together. The default calculation method in Excel is automatic, if a value changes in the worksheet any formula referring to that value will automatically recalculate. The following symbols are used to represent the 4 basic Mathematical Operators: + Addition - Subtraction * Multiplication / Division Begin formulas in Microsoft Excel with an = equal sign. The equal sign tells Excel that the succeeding characters constitute a formula. Entering a Formula Position the cell pointer in the cell that will contain the answer of the formula. Type an = equal sign. Click with the mouse on the cell to be calculated. Type the mathematically operator to be used in the formula. Click on the next cell to be calculated. Repeat Steps 4 & 5, as required. Press enter to return the result of the formula or click on the tick on the formula bar. The result of the formula is displayed in the worksheet cell. The actual formula controlling the result will be displayed in the formula bar of the worksheet. Functions A function is a predefined formula that operates on a value or values and returns a value or values. Many Excel functions are shorthand versions of frequently used formulas. E.g. the Sum function lets you add a series of cell values by simply selecting a range of cells. Formula Function =A1+A2+A3+A4+A5+A6+A7+A8 =SUM(A1:A8) As illustrated above, the sum function makes the formula a lot shorter and easier to create. UCC Computer Training Centre 18

23 Elements of a Function The following elements are common in all functions: = must start with an equal sign function name must have a name (.) must have arguments enclosed in brackets. There are a few exceptions e.g. =now ( ) AutoSum The SUM function is the most commonly used function so to make it more accessible there is an AutoSum button on the Home Tab in the Editing group as well. It is also located on the Formulas Tab. Calculating sum of a range of cells Position the cell pointer in the cell that will contain the answer of the function. Usually this will be under a column of numbers. Click on the AutoSum button Excel will guess the range of cells to be calculated and it will insert the =SUM function. If the range of cells is not correct use the mouse to select the correct range of cells to be added. (use the mouse and the Ctrl key to select non-adjacent cells) Press return to display the results in the cell or click on the tick on the formula bar. Alternatively Position the cell pointer in the cell that will contain the Type in the sum function e.g. =sum(b5:b7), remember always start with the equals. Excel will prompt you with a list of possible functions, you can click on the function you require or continue typing it in. Ensure the correct range of cells are typed Hit Enter UCC Computer Training Centre 19

24 Inserting Functions Click on the down arrow to the right of the AutoSum button on the Home tab, Editing Group This will immediately allow you to access the functions; Average, Count, Max & Min.
